I'm ace so I'm not sexually attracted but I still have romantic feelings towards, well I'm pans, but without the sexual part if that makes any sense. Like I'm married to a man who is very understanding although I wasn't ace when we got married. It happened later due to endometriosis, intercourse being painful, trauma and libido failing. Hugs and cuddles are great but I'm just not interested in having sex unless we are trying to conceive. I'm this weird mish mash of asexual, pansexual and gender neutral(nonbinary). Im like 3 letters of the lgbtqia+ It's so confusing. Other ace people I've talked to have been really nice to me about my attempts at expressing who I am and even said that my asexuality is still valid even when I try to conceive. I had previously wondered if I'm only considered ace when I'm celibate and not when I'm trying to do something special for my husband for his benefit but not mine, or trying to have one baby before getting a hysterectomy.
I LOVE hearing cats in the background, Zeke's constant talking is so funny. And also Hannah's "frustration" is so relatable, I also have a cat that can be very needy and talkative :D
Oh! For the “Baker” marketing in Amway, there’s 3 giant separate organizations. Must’ve been Worldwide Group. So the first major “Bakers,” sponsored both of their children. One siblings organization is a lot bigger. The other one.. Crickets.. “They’re ‘working’ on it.” Then there is another Bakers organization which I actually saw built from nothing to something huge in like 4 years tops, from where I’m at. Basically they take the last name of the highest/most “successful” upline and then use the last name and toss Development/LLC or whatever other fancy name you wanna toss in there.
Apologies again for how obnoxious Zeke is in this video 🤦🏼♀️ I promise I tried my best to edit him out but I already basically re-read these emails twice while filming due to him meowing over me and your girl can only take so much 🤪 Thanks for your understanding!
haha I kept hearing faint Zeke meows, but I thought it was my own cats and I was so confused and concerned because it wasn't their usual meow!! My cats are much more shrill. Zeke has such a sweet meow.
I felt so bad for the baby!! I honestly enjoyed every moment of it. It's more like hanging out at a friend's house listening to these great real life stories and the cat is hanging around keeping everyone company.
No lie, for the first 13 minutes I swore I kept hearing my cat Sherlock say something (he’s mouthy, so that’s normal) but when I’d look at him he was just chillin, minding his own business. Mmkay… cool, so now I’m hearing things. Great! Thanks, Zeke.
Never apologize for your cats! If I had a youtube channel I know my giant orange cat would always be in the frame trying to distract me, which he does every time I do my current job from home. This is my first posted video since I joined the channel, excited to be here, signed number one Zeke and Cooper fan.
Hey does the purple diamond/jewel next to your name mean something? Genuinely curious I see it a lot in her comment section, and it’s pretty but I don’t have it in my emojis lol😅
I definitely see the Mila Kunis resemblance. And at first I thought the little Zeke squeaks were one of my cats, and I was driving myself nuts trying to find where they were hiding lol. Don't ever feel the need to apologize for your sweet kitties!
At the 6 minute mark the writer of the story said that she spent $4,000 in 2 years in Beach Body. It's crazy how your upline convinces you that you "need" to spend so much money. I'm in college when I was preyed upon and was pressured into spending more than $6,000 in 8 months. The most I ever got paid was $18 in one month. I feel so stupid and constantly think about how I could have better spent that money. My upline constantly begged me to take out student loans to pay for the "business", but thankfully I never took their advice. The $6,000 was taken out of my emergency funds that I saved myself.
Until you mentioned your cats, I was listening to this video without watching because my laundry doesn’t fold itself. Anyways, I kept hearing your cat but I didn’t know it was your cat and thought it was my cat. I called him over and over thinking he’s crying in the hallway and couldn’t find him anywhere… then I remembered he is outside and thought I was going crazy lol. So glad you said something haha. Our cats sound the same.
24:55 don’t ever apologize for Zeke. He is a delight. The way Zeke sings reminds me of my cat Zeus and how he would sing like that in the middle of the night. I come for the anti-MLM content, and the cats are a bonus.
I wish we could upload photos to comments because my cat ( HoHo) is sitting right next to me and going nuts over hearing Zeke. She wants to jump through my phone and play and then keeps glaring at me like I'm not letting her. Lol. We both love your channel!!
The story from the kiwi lady is really relatable to me. I found anti-MLM content after I searched what MLM meant in a queer context, so I was actually looking for the men loving men definition, but ended up finding the anti multilevel marketing content 😂
We have 3 cats, and one of them is almost alwayssss crying or meowing or "singing the songs of his people" at the absolute *worst* times (like at 4 AM on a Sunday or when one of us is on an important Zoom call or when he is just bored lol). I feel your pain/annoyance - but no need to apologize! Love your content AND your sweet kitties (even though I totally understand that frustration haha). Thanks for another great video! 🐱❤️🐱
Here in Australia, there are 'some' buy-in costs for legitimate employment - for instance, to be able to serve alcohol in a bar you need a RSA (responsible service of alcohol) certificate and most coffee shops/cafes (except franchises) require you to have some sort of barista training (hence the buy in is the training/certification). Here's the thing with these tho - you can use them anywhere in Australia and they aren't restricted to one 'company'.
I didn't realize the meowing was Zeke at first, he sounds exactly like my boy when he wants something. I actually walked downstairs to see if he was okay before I saw that it was coming from the tv 🥺💕
As someone with PCOS and the exactly same symptoms, the weight struggle is real. It takes a lot of dietary adjustments and really to get into working out, as well as actuall medication (it's used to get your blood sugar in control). Just drinking protein shakes won't do a damn thing for you, and it's insane they'd claim it would.
As I'm watching this I hear Zeke in the background but I keep checking for my kitty...he makes the same noise when he's ready to bother me! Excellent content!
SO glad you gave that disclaimer about your cat going crazy because I kept popping my head out my room until that point, wondering why every time I try to see why my cat is being insane he was actually peacefully asleep on his cat tower. Confused me profusely. 😅 Love the content btw! Recently found your channel and have had it on in the background almost constantly while I’m home alone.
Just had to share something funny/ironic. I listen to the podcast American Greed (from the CNBC television show of the same name), which I recommend to any of your viewers who like this kind of content (it's a great crossover of true crime and exposing scams, which you are all about!). Ironically, Beachbody has had some ads on the podcast, which is so funny to me, as the podcast is about exposing pyramid schemes, fraudulent investments, and other financial exploitation, and then a Beachbody ad comes on! I didn't know about the MLM aspect of Beachbody until watching your channel, and I understand they also have direct-sales avenues, I just chuckle when the ad comes on when I'm primed for spotting scams. Really enjoy your videos!
Zeke sounds like my boy Mako every morning when I come downstairs, just yelling his head off by the front door like he’s missing the most amazing adventures (he’s an indoor cat and doesn’t even like outside, he was rescued from a feral cat colony)
Just subscribed and have been binging your content! And I just have to say it makes me smile every time you're explaining something I just hear a little "mrrroow" from your cat in the background lmao it is the cutest thing ever 🥺♥️
Your cat meowing woke my cat sleeping next to me lol. She had to go and investigate 🤣🤣🤣. Owww and kia ora from New Zealand. And I agree, mlm's aren't as prevelent here at the moment, but I can see it creeping in 🤦♀️
Story 3 mentioned migraines in their toxic situation, my symptom was full on hives all over the tops of my thighs and massive fatigue that forced me to sleep in the middle of every day. Yeah, didn't need to be in the masters program that bad! My health took priority and I settled on my bachelors and am thriving all the same lol
I agree...formal hun stories are the best. I was roped into a SENEGENCE Lipsence party and then asked to invite/recruit 5 friends for a makeup tutorial. I actually got so angry when my upline used my grief over the recent loss of my uncle in 2019 to berate me when I called her out for crappy behavior. I used a lot of expletives and quit immediately before the tutorial. She tried to go around my former friend to get to me...HELL no. I was also convinced to toss all my non SENEGENCE makeup omg 😂 i also felt gross inviting people. Thank God hubby was already anti mlm and educated me before I got in too deep
I just found your channel...you are delightful and LOVE your ethical stance on MLMs! While Zeke was singing the song of his people, my cat Basic Dave (who had been asleep on my lap), got VERY interested in the goings on and backed him up on harmony! lol
idk if you have ever been a therapist or a teacher, but you would be great as either of those. You have a really great way of explaining things. Thanks for the content!
Ho boy..... Amway story brought back a bunch of horrible memories. 😂 I was 9 when my parents were caught up in the Amway pool of sharks. The verbiage and acronyms just woke me right up. 😂
Before I knew that Beachbody existed, I had heard about PiYo and was interested in it! I made a Facebook post about it and one of my friends who it turned out was a BB coach jumped on it and tried to sell it to me. I saw how expensive it was and “nope”-d right out, and thankfully she left me alone. But I feel like I dodged a bullet, I was a lot more naïve then and I could’ve become a hun.
16:02 Ace in this context likely means 'Asexual'. To explain further, Asexuality is a spectrum in which people experience little to no sexual attraction. Asexuality varies from person to person, but there are a few unifying flags people can rally around. There's the flag for the spectrum as a whole (purple, white, gray, black), then there's Demisexual (only sexually attracted after emotionally attached), Gray-Ace (very limited sexual attraction), Reciprosexual (only if sexual attraction is displayed toward them first), and so many others. People on the Asexual spectrum can have a variety of experiences around sex, whether it be sex-positive, neutral, or even sex-repulsed. With all that said, sexuality is not the only form of attraction out there. Asexual people can absolutely feel love (after all, no one in their right mind would say that you can't love your own mother without being sexually involved with her). There's an entirely different spectrum out there for romantic attraction. Some people fall on both the Ace spectrum and the Aro (Aromantic) spectrum, but not all. It's entirely possible to be Homoromantic Asexual or Aromantic Pansexual or literally any other combination you can think of. Beyond that, even people on both the Aro and Ace spectrums can be attracted to people in other ways. There's a lot to know about Asexuality and Aromanticism. If you have any questions about these invisible queer identities, let me know. I'm on both spectrums, so I can clear things up on both accounts.
A girl i knew joined Amway, she tried recruiting two of our mutual friends. One of them told me about the video call that the Amway girl and her upline forced her to go on and my first reaction was "that sounds like a cult" so I googled it and that's how I discovered anti-MLM
I’m not sure how they get around 1099 laws when they’re requiring things of employees. If you are getting paid by a 1099 the company has ZERO claim on your time ….they can’t tell you you must attend any meeting without paying you.
I forget that other people aren't LGBT or at least deeply imbedded in the community and know what every acronym and short form is, so I got a good giggle out of the Ace confusion.
My kitty died at Thanksgiving, but when he would act like Zeke, I'd gather him up in my arms and love bomb him so much that after 3 or 4 minutes he was desperate to get away from me.
I’ve been binging your content- just found you! You’re a refresh for me in the Anti MLM community. So many get big and become more and more mean as it gets personal for them. I love that you always keep your motivation in check- helping people get out/stay out of predatory schemes. Keep being you! 💜
My cousin was briefly involved with Primerica. We're Native American. He went to a conference or some event and started saying “dude” a lot, like a white dude bro. It was so weird. It sounded culty. He didn’t last long with them and I’m glad.
I was watching this video and I had to pause several times to check on my cats because I thought they were crying to get in the room. Lmao. I thought I was losing it when they were nowhere to be found. Then i suddenly remembered zeke. Lol
My son, who is gay, was horrified when he heard you saying it was good for kids to be anti-MLM at an early age 🤣 he's way into your channel now though, we crochet to your vids all the time!
I’m a prime target for huns: disabled, broke, and even a military spouse. I’ve only been asked a handful of times by them to join but I’ve never had a pushy one. I let them know I’m lazy af. They try and say “I’ll help through the way, the support is amazing” then I hit them with a compliment “I just can’t be as driven as you/you guys”. They float away on the compliment lol. I realize I haven’t met a pushy one at all tho.
Ace is Asexual, meaning that we don't experience sexual attraction to people places or things. Lets go ace hype!
Yes I was made aware of this!! Thank you! I know what asexual is but was not aware of the abbreviation. I also emailed the sender to apologize ❤️
Oop I didn't check the pinned comment before I commented this explanation when I heard it in the video.... so now my comment is just redundant. Lol
Happy to see someone else posted it when I was about to :)
Ace pride let's go!
I'm ace so I'm not sexually attracted but I still have romantic feelings towards, well I'm pans, but without the sexual part if that makes any sense. Like I'm married to a man who is very understanding although I wasn't ace when we got married. It happened later due to endometriosis, intercourse being painful, trauma and libido failing.

Thoughts and prayers for Zeke- he's clearly dealing with some stuff 😂
My thoughts exactly lol
Hannah: I'm sorry for the cat's noise, I'm trying to edit them out
Hannah's audience: how dare you?..
I LOVE hearing cats in the background, Zeke's constant talking is so funny. And also Hannah's "frustration" is so relatable, I also have a cat that can be very needy and talkative :D
💯💯💯
MOAR ZEKE
I keep thinking it’s a ghast

Zeke is so stressed over these stories. He's so worried about people and has so much to say.
Or he's absolutely fuming lol
This is Zeke's channel, you're just visiting.
Ain’t that the truth….
Yes! 😂😁❤️ Thanks, Zeke kitty, for sharing your channel with your Mama Hannah. 🐱
My kitten is totally confused listening to Zeke!!!
😙🤣🤣🤣
Mrrrr
In this world, nothing is certain, except huns being shameless and Zeke being loud.
Best. Comment. Ever!!!
Lmao
Apologies again for how obnoxious Zeke is in this video 🤦🏼♀️ I promise I tried my best to edit him out but I already basically re-read these emails twice while filming due to him
meowing over me and your girl can only take so much 🤪 Thanks for your understanding!
please dont edit him out ❤❤❤❤
Don’t edit him out! It’s precious 🥺🥺❤️
haha I kept hearing faint Zeke meows, but I thought it was my own cats and I was so confused and concerned because it wasn't their usual meow!! My cats are much more shrill. Zeke has such a sweet meow.
I am a Zeke stan, i vote keep him in (which one is he?)
I LOVE hearing your cat. I'm sure it was very frustrating when you were recording, but Zeke made me feel right at home. :)
The addition of a cat is always fun, makes her vibe natural :)
I love how chirpy he is ♡ i don't find it annoying at all it's adorable
My eyebrows POPPED OFF MY FACE when I heard that shit about beach body competing with themselves
Been binging her videos and the whole beauty counter(?) in Ulta thing gives me the same vibes. Like everyone high up was cut a deal or something.
DONT EVER APOLOGIZE FOR ZEKE BEING LOUD AND MEOWING AND ASKING FOR ATTENTION I LOVE HIM SO MUCH PLEASE TELL HIM THAT
I know, from first hand experience, we are definitely NOT an Anti Men Loving Men community... 🤣🤣
I felt so bad for the baby!! I honestly enjoyed every moment of it. It's more like hanging out at a friend's house listening to these great real life stories and the cat is hanging around keeping everyone company.
Aw that is a sweet way of thinking of it! 🥺
I was invited to an MLM pitch as a first date. Absolutely a nightmare.
Send in the story LOL
No lie, for the first 13 minutes I swore I kept hearing my cat Sherlock say something (he’s mouthy, so that’s normal) but when I’d look at him he was just chillin, minding his own business. Mmkay… cool, so now I’m hearing things. Great!

Chirpy baby wanted to chat
I love orange cats! they are usually male for some reason!
Omg. I never considered the Mila Kunis resemblance and now I can't unsee it!!! Holy crap! Also, all the kitties all the time doesn't bother me
Me too. Yes! It’s think it’s in her eyes.
Hey does the purple diamond/jewel next to your name mean something? Genuinely curious I see it a lot in her comment section, and it’s pretty but I don’t have it in my emojis lol😅
@@BloodSweatandFears I'm a channel member :)
@@kellyspryszak80 Oooh that’s so cool! Thanks 😊
We lost our kitty this summer 🐱 hearing (and sometimes seeing) yours is always great for me 🥰
I'm sorry to hear that 😔 hope he's ok out there
So sorry for your loss :(
Sorry for the loss of your kitty. We lost our Beagley boy Stormy in June. Animals are so amazing. ❤️🐶🐱😇😇🌈 May you have comfort.
@@heatherframpton9693 seeing Hanna be so amazing with hers always puts a smile on my face 🥰
I feel the need to share the time stamp for Zeke's big interruption xD 24:55 - 25:26
I’ve just found your videos! Honestly Zeke is just showing his disgust at these mlm tactics.
Zeke really said "Amway is horrible!!"
My parents were in Amway when they tried to rebrand to Quixar. So many stories...so culty
@24:54 Zeke meowing up a ruckus lol IT IS SO CUTE 😺
I definitely see the Mila Kunis resemblance.
And at first I thought the little Zeke squeaks were one of my cats, and I was driving myself nuts trying to find where they were hiding lol. Don't ever feel the need to apologize for your sweet kitties!
Zeke’s commentary was super insightful and cute.
I have no idea how I got here, but you just earned yourself a new subscriber. Now it's binging time!
Wooo let’s go Kathryn!! So happy you’re here!
NEVER apologize for your furbabies! We love them!

Don’t ever apologize for the vocal chirps of the fluff ball!
Zeke is never annoying! His little chirps made me smile.
Awe Zeke so adorable. Love the meowing
24:55 don’t ever apologize for Zeke. He is a delight. The way Zeke sings reminds me of my cat Zeus and how he would sing like that in the middle of the night. I come for the anti-MLM content, and the cats are a bonus.
I’d really love for you and Savannah Marie to make and Anti MLM Cats Calendar with pics of Zeke and Poptart!
And Cooper too!
Zeke’s wee chattering was so adorable in this video 🥰
Cats have a mind of their own lol That meow is the sweetest sound.
I wish we could upload photos to comments because my cat ( HoHo) is sitting right next to me and going nuts over hearing Zeke. She wants to jump through my phone and play and then keeps glaring at me like I'm not letting her. Lol. We both love your channel!!
The cat is adorable, hearing him makes me smile .. I love his voice
My story was read! What a wonderful way to end the day. ❤
The story from the kiwi lady is really relatable to me. I found anti-MLM content after I searched what MLM meant in a queer context, so I was actually looking for the men loving men definition, but ended up finding the anti multilevel marketing content 😂
The kitty meows are actually super adorable 😻

Also, I'm listening from another room, so I thought I was going crazy hearing meows... Ohhhh.. Hey Zeke💕💕
Zeke's chirruping in the background gives me life 😍
Here in Australia, there are 'some' buy-in costs for legitimate employment - for instance, to be able to serve alcohol in a bar you need a RSA (responsible service of alcohol) certificate and most coffee shops/cafes (except franchises) require you to have some sort of barista training (hence the buy in is the training/certification).

I didn't realize the meowing was Zeke at first, he sounds exactly like my boy when he wants something. I actually walked downstairs to see if he was okay before I saw that it was coming from the tv 🥺💕
My cat loves to start talking when I am going to sleep, sounding like she has lost me when I know she watched me lay down and get cozy.
Awwww I love Zeke's commentary ❤❤❤
As someone with PCOS and the exactly same symptoms, the weight struggle is real. It takes a lot of dietary adjustments and really to get into working out, as well as actuall medication (it's used to get your blood sugar in control).

Zeke responding and basically arguing with you when you scolded him took me OUT 🤣🤣
Never apologise for your kitties 🥰 you're so cute with them even when you're mad 🤣
As I'm watching this I hear Zeke in the background but I keep checking for my kitty...he makes the same noise when he's ready to bother me! Excellent content!

Love the content btw! Recently found your channel and have had it on in the background almost constantly while I’m home alone.

Oh my goodness 🤣 yeah Zeke likes to make a vocal appearance in many of my videos!
Your cat meowing woke my cat sleeping next to me lol. She had to go and investigate 🤣🤣🤣.
Owww and kia ora from New Zealand. And I agree, mlm's aren't as prevelent here at the moment, but I can see it creeping in 🤦♀️
I love how you validate, normalize, and encourage people.

Yeah, didn't need to be in the masters program that bad! My health took priority and I settled on my bachelors and am thriving all the same lol
CLEARLY! Clearly Zeke HATES Amway!
Love the kitty meowing in the background lol!!
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE your chatty kitty!
I agree...formal hun stories are the best. I was roped into a SENEGENCE Lipsence party and then asked to invite/recruit 5 friends for a makeup tutorial. I actually got so angry when my upline used my grief over the recent loss of my uncle in 2019 to berate me when I called her out for crappy behavior. I used a lot of expletives and quit immediately before the tutorial. She tried to go around my former friend to get to me...HELL no. I was also convinced to toss all my non SENEGENCE makeup omg 😂 i also felt gross inviting people. Thank God hubby was already anti mlm and educated me before I got in too deep
Zeke is just adding in "!!!" to the video and I love it-he's joined in as your co-host with occasional guest appearances!
Apparently, kitty has opinions on MLMs! It's not a disruption, but so sweet!
My cat does the same thing!! 😅 he always kicks it up a notch if I try to ignore him and will scratch at my clothes to get me to pay attention
I love your cat. His meows are so precious!
I love hearing Zeke's little mrrrrow's in the background!
I just found your channel...you are delightful and LOVE your ethical stance on MLMs! While Zeke was singing the song of his people, my cat Basic Dave (who had been asleep on my lap), got VERY interested in the goings on and backed him up on harmony! lol

That Amway story happened to me. I forget the company they said they were but they said it was Amway products they used. This was also in 2017
Don't edit Zeke out - he's adorable - I don't mind the meowing at all! 😺
My puppy is VERY interested in the noises coming from my computer!
A girl i knew joined Amway, she tried recruiting two of our mutual friends. One of them told me about the video call that the Amway girl and her upline forced her to go on and my first reaction was "that sounds like a cult" so I googled it and that's how I discovered anti-MLM
And let's not forget that 'bootleg' copies of all the Beach Body (and most other literature/video based mlm's) materials are available free online...
Motherhood, physical/mental health issues, weight struggles, loneliness, and financial issues are the main targets for MLMs.
I love listening to Zeke myurring away in the background 🥺
LOL the kitty crying in-between the chats just made me laugh so much 🤣 hahaha
I’m not sure how they get around 1099 laws when they’re requiring things of employees. If you are getting paid by a 1099 the company has ZERO claim on your time ….they can’t tell you you must attend any meeting without paying you.
I forget that other people aren't LGBT or at least deeply imbedded in the community and know what every acronym and short form is, so I got a good giggle out of the Ace confusion.
My kitty died at Thanksgiving, but when he would act like Zeke, I'd gather him up in my arms and love bomb him so much that after 3 or 4 minutes he was desperate to get away from me.
Sorry for your loss, man.
I’ve been binging your content- just found you! You’re a refresh for me in the Anti MLM community. So many get big and become more and more mean as it gets personal for them. I love that you always keep your motivation in check- helping people get out/stay out of predatory schemes. Keep being you! 💜
Please keep Zeke in your videos. My cat runs around like crazy every time he hears Zeke meow. It’s HILARIOUS 😂
I like your cats added commentary. It made me smile.
My cousin was briefly involved with Primerica. We're Native American. He went to a conference or some event and started saying “dude” a lot, like a white dude bro. It was so weird. It sounded culty. He didn’t last long with them and I’m glad.
I had a background check due to my job being inside a bank, but I didn’t have to pay for it.
Briannah Jewel is a really good source for science based information about MLMs and she's a lot of fun!!
Your genuine reactions make this...brilliant! Hi Zeke - from Australia.
I was watching this video and I had to pause several times to check on my cats because I thought they were crying to get in the room. Lmao. I thought I was losing it when they were nowhere to be found. Then i suddenly remembered zeke. Lol
My son, who is gay, was horrified when he heard you saying it was good for kids to be anti-MLM at an early age 🤣 he's way into your channel now though, we crochet to your vids all the time!
I love crocheting, but I usually just clean listening to the videos. Thanks for the idea though!
I love when Zeke chimes in 😂😂
This video was 33 minutes of my cat frantically searching my house for Zeke 😂
i emailed you my beachbody story today and i had completely forgotten about the website fee... yikes
I love the long stories but I also really love this trend over the last couple of videos of ending with a shorter story. Good way to wrap things up.
those cat sounds omg ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m a prime target for huns: disabled, broke, and even a military spouse. I’ve only been asked a handful of times by them to join but I’ve never had a pushy one. I let them know I’m lazy af. They try and say “I’ll help through the way, the support is amazing” then I hit them with a compliment “I just can’t be as driven as you/you guys”. They float away on the compliment lol. I realize I haven’t met a pushy one at all tho.
Your cats are like the comedy relief sometimes lmao
